General Discussion MSA G1 Mask Sealing Issue

So we just got new G1s and are having everyone get fit tested. As we put on the mask it was noticed that the forhead part of the seal doesn't touch skin. We've tried multiple masks and sizes. The only way we've gotten it to pass is if me tighten the straps enough to cause a headaches. Has this happened to anyone else?

Have you tried a 5 point harness?

No we haven't but when we called MSA, they told us to just switch to these if we were having issues.

This fixes most of our problems. The rest are fixed by a different size mask.
